Found a set of front brakes from a 1976 912 e that are in real good shape. I have a 73 914 that the front brakes are in bad shape and need a complete over haul. My question is that will the 912 brakes fit a 914. I'm thinking of switching brakes like some owner's have done with BMW 32 i brakes. Thanks

Nope. You need 3” 911/912 struts, hubs and rotors to fit 911 or 912 brake calipers.

Easier to stay stock. Rotors, bearings and seals, renewed calipers. Maybe soft lines. Prob cheaper in the long run.
